Jarek Potiuk commented on RAT-259: ---------------------------------- That's what we need :). > Allow configuration of files to be scanned for CLI module > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: RAT-259 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RAT-259 > Project: Apache Rat > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: cli > Affects Versions: 0.13 > Reporter: Philipp Ottlinger > Assignee: Philipp Ottlinger > Priority: Major > Time Spent: 10m > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > After talks at ApacheCon 2019 in Berlin [~higrys][~potiuk] asked for a > possibility to specify the files that need to be scanned. > This could be added as a new CLI option that specifies a file to read from. > Each line will contain one file that RAT scans with its default configuration > (as the current CLI scan does). > Thus a possible run would be: > {code} > java -jar rat.jar -scan myfiles.txt > {code} > "-scan" will be an exclusive option, thus all other existing > exclusions options will not be allowed, when this option is used. > myfile.txt may contain comments (starting with "#") or empty lines, all else > will be treated as files. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
